I love your energy, makes the watch so worth it. I'm scheduled for this exam Friday.

[@shawnp0wers]

Thank you, and good luck on the exam!!!

4:56 I laughed so hard at that 🤣 Much needed comedic relief for my studying. I hope you plugged Echo back in! Did she prank order some pizza as revenge? 😂

[@Yeah_THAT_Greenville]

I'm learning so much from your videos, love the energy!

[@Hideko12]

Thx Shawn your videos are awesome so i scheduled the exam on September 27 after watching half of the playlist . Thx again!

[@shawnp0wers]

Thank you, and good luck!!!

Very nice explanation, I just made a career change in IT-Security as Support. I work with proxy-servers and e-mail security, most likely McAfee(SkyHigh)/Cisco and since they are all based on Linux I need to learn it very fast. So thank you very much for your engagement!

[@shawnp0wers]

Very cool! And good luck in your new career. The "IT creators" on KZbin tend to be a pretty friendly group. I'm really enjoying it here. :)

[@deansebastianhiby8100]

@@shawnp0wers Thank you! That´s totally true, I´ve mostly made very good experiences with them :)

[@giannizamora7247]

Underrated videos, thank you!

Strangely, the type command works on my install, but the man page for it isn't there. I found it online, though. Update after watching the next lesson: `type - - help` works. Second update: commands that are "shell builtin" don't have their own man page, you find them in the shell itself's one. So type is drowned somewhere in the massive 'man bash'. You can find it by typing `man bash`, and once in there `/type`, and then `n` until you reach the right occurrence of this string.

This video series is great thank you so much.

I was so confused cos I didn't know "echo" is like print for JS for example.

[@theevil2008]

Hi Mr. Shawn I'm new to linux, I have question can I use Kali Linux to prepare for comptia linux +? and thank you for your effort to make these videos, appreciated.

[@majidraffoul3200]

Wanted to let you know that we both told our Alexa's to shut up at the same time lol

[@shawnp0wers]

Based on how often I have to do that, we might say it at the same time more often than either of us realize. LOL!

[@DNFINST]

"ok computer" nice Radiohead reference

[@shawnp0wers]

Oh dang, if I made the reference it was on accident. Now I gotta go back and watch to see if I catch it myself!

[@rahilarious]

"this is shell" ...but what is shell?

[@shawnp0wers]

Fair question... and... tough to answer simply. BUT, a "shell" is just the program that runs giving you access to the linux system. Also, the video I released today has a bit more basic commandline information. I think the LPI Linux Essentials objectives I'm following chose the wrong order to introduce things. In the playlist, I put the other video first, but I apologize for the confusion if you see this one first. Here is the link to the video I posted earlier today: kzbin.info/www/bejne/i6atpqRrrNqVl7c

[@rahilarious]

@@shawnp0wers i just asked from POV commandline newbie...when I started I was so confused between console, terminal and shell now I use gentoo on main machine :-P

[@shawnp0wers]

​@@rahilarious OH, yes, very good point. I might have to add a video toward the beginning of the series tackling that. The confusion at first with Linux can be so frustrating. I think people just give up because it doesn't seem worth the effort. I appreciate the comment even more now, thank you again. :)

[@rahilarious]

@@shawnp0wers love your energy. Keep up the work. can't wait to learn advanced stuff from u

[@folksurvival]

@@rahilarious Luke Smith has a good video about it for newbies. The video to search for is Luke Smith Terminal vs. Bash vs. Command line vs. Prompt.

Hey Shawn, your explanation about exporting variables makes sense, but when I tried to follow your same steps in my bash terminal in Ubuntu, it didn't work for me. I exported $THING with "export $THING" and then opened a child bash terminal with "bash", and the result with "echo $THING" came up as blank, same as before when I hadn't exported it. Is the export command different in ubuntu? Thanks for these vids by the way!

[@shawnp0wers]

I’m not at a computer, but I think leave the dollar sign off when exporting.

[@ChristopherClayton-q7w]

Echo chimed in LOL

[@Kaldrean]

Hey shawn! where are the variables stored by default? and how would a user check which variables they have set?

[@shawnp0wers]

Environment variables are stored in memory. You can type "env" on the commandline and see a list of currently set variables. Hopefully that helps!

[@diefer8093]

You are the best!!!

[@shawnp0wers]

Thank you!
